Welcome! I'm Scott Glenn, a compassionate and dedicated therapist whose goal is to help individuals overcome life's challenges. I take a relational therapeutic approach rooted in empathy, authenticity, respect, and a commitment to your well-being. My approach to therapy integrates the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Inner Child work among other modalities. I believe in tailoring treatment to meet each client's unique needs, while working collaboratively to explore thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that may be hindering personal fulfillment.

My areas of focus are: traumatic experiences and PTSD, adoption & foster care, couple & family life challenges, Depression, drug and alcohol problems, LGBT youth and families, ADHD, parenting enhancement, Learning Disabilities, Anxiety Disorders, adolescent issues, subtle neuropsychological issues, Mood Disorders, youth and the criminal justice system, and CPS involvement with families.

You're not alone, and you've come to the right place. Every person needs help sometimes, and it takes courage to acknowledge it when that person is ourselves. I've helped many people in the same boat that you're in. Utilizing scientifically-proven approaches, I empower burnt-out professionals and young adults to prioritize their long-term health and happiness and take concrete steps to reach their goals in life, work, and love.

Finding the right therapist can be a daunting task - when you are suffering, it can be especially difficult to make this decision. To find relief, you need to be able to connect with your provider, build trust, and explore who you are and your issues in a safe and understanding space. We might be a good fit if you are curious about yourself and want to learn more about how your mind and emotions work, particularly if your thoughts and feelings are interfering with your quality of life, or you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues or have a history of trauma.

I am an Honors graduate of The University of Texas at Austin with over 30 years experience helping people overcome anxiety & depression, resolve conflicts, deal with past hurts & traumas, improve communication and self esteem, and increase the quality of their relationships, as well as their work or school performance, in order that they may lead happier and more fulfilling lives. I also recently completed training to become a state-licensed, Clinical Social Work Supervisor for newly-graduated clinicians-in-training.

I have over 20 years of experience supporting teens, young adults, adults, families & couples (LGBTQ encouraged and celebrated) with breaking patterns, managing depression and anxiety, improving communication with colleagues and loved ones and meeting life goals. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space for exploration, growth and healing. My therapy style is warm, straightforward, collaborative and relational.

Most people I work with want help connecting with others more deeply. Some want help with depression or anxiety. And others want help identifying and meeting some needs in life, love, or work. With over 15 years of experience, I specialize in working with people who want to improve their relationships with others, increase their emotional communication, and identify their needs in life.  I bring a natural curiosity as well as empathy and compassion when helping you work through some of the barriers that may get in the way of you reaching your goals.

Sometimes, life can be difficult. We suffer more when we fight, resist or avoid painful thoughts, feelings, memories or sensations. Living a value-driven life is challenging when we do this. A value-driven life is one where we continue to do the things that are important to us.

It can be very frustrating to be misunderstood by your spouse or your partner. You probably have a hard time communicating with each other. You probably find yourselves fighting about seemingly minor issues. You might be hurting and even feel a great deal of anger and resentment. You tried hard to fix the situation yourself or even hoped it would go away but you always seem to end up fighting again. You may even feel defeated because of the frequent arguing and worried about the future of your relationship. You know its time to get some help.

From our very first contact, I think you will find that I'm easy to talk to. I pride myself on being a good listener, and I believe you will experience me as warm, genuine, and supportive. I'm not one of those quiet therapists; I openly and honestly share my thoughts, questions, and perceptions. You will also find me to be (gently) challenging when you need and want to be challenged. I take your confidentiality and privacy very seriously. And, while much of what we discuss will be serious, I do have a sense of humor that I don't leave at the door.

My approach to psychotherapy combines compassion-focused, heart-centered, relational, experiential psychotherapy with evidence-based practices to address your whole self. I will collaborate with you to help you to live according to your values, and I will help you untangle the stuck places in your life. My work comes from a foundation of deep listening, creating space for you to share of yourself and explore your experience. On top of that, I layer practical tools and skills that promote psychological well-being. Finally, I may engage with you through experiential work in mindfulness to help create transformative experiences.

Lack of Motivation, Addiction, & Relationship Issues - The 3 most common presenting problems in my practice today. Whether you’re dealing with any combination of the 3, or something else entirely, actualizing your potential is the way forward. I don't believe rehashing past experiences to no end is helpful. While talking about past experiences may be an important part of our work, growth manifests through present integration. Being as honest and direct as possible is the best way to demonstrate how I'm not here to waste your time. If we share this value, my style of therapy may be right for you.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of clinical experience in mental health. Making the decision to look for a therapist is a courageous one and can come from a myriad of reasons. You may be feeling stuck, lost in the chaos of life, adjusting to a life transition or struggling with anxiety. Perhaps you’re experiencing difficulties in relationships, struggling to find connections or meaning in your life. Or maybe you just feel like you need help exploring yourself and your history to come to a more defined sense of self.

I am a Licensed Psychologist. I know that we often believe that we must tolerate or suffer through our current circumstances, as we are often unaware of our full personal potential, as well as the role we play in limiting our growth and progress. Peace of mind and a sense of purpose are essential elements of life that one must deliberately work towards.

I provide individual and couples counseling for issues such as depression, anxiety, grief, serious illnesses and healthcare decision-making, struggles with shame, and supporting gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people. Before earning a PhD in clinical psychology, my previous career was as a Zen/interfaith chaplain and healthcare administrator. Consequently, I have extensive experience supporting medical doctors and other healthcare professionals. I also enjoy supporting clients who struggle with spiritually-related concerns, career-related concerns, and wellness.
